Whether it's giving a technical talk, outreach to the public, or advocating to policymakers, communication is an integral part of our jobs. This is especially crucial given the politicized nature of nuclear and misinformation surrounding it. While mythbusting and rational arguments are popular tools for countering misinformation, these style of arguments often hold less weight than deeper-rooted philosophical and cultural worldviews.
